Very unhappy

We stayed here last year and loved it. We just checked out again this morning. The most disappointing stay ever. There was a family - and by that i mean a family of 10 or 12 that monipolized the pool for 2 entire days- loud music at the pool, so loud you could hear it through the doors into the rooms. It was like their own personal reunion and home. I never complain at places but i went to the desk to complain and they did nothing. 2 other guests, that im aware of, did the same. Absolutely nothing was done. So 2 days of our trip was soent listening to loud rap music through the walls and being unable to wven use the pool. At 1400$ for 3 nights, it was complete bs. Idk if new owners took over but this place has gone completely downhill in a year. The staff was so friendly last year, this year they didnt even look at the guests when they walked by all day.

The location to the boardwalk is great. Just steps away, that's the reason it gets 3 stars. Otherwise, the walls are thin. It's very noisy. A fire alarm goes off and the hotel gets evacuated. The air conditioner in the room didn't work. I think the staff tried their best, but we didnt have a great experience

It's not fancy, but the room was large and clean, and parking is included and adequate. The pool was nice, and the location is great-- right on the boardwalk. There was a fridge and microwave in the room.

The motel was average not too clean but close to the beach. Had to call for room service which wasn’t too great anyway. The room smelled and was never bleached like we asked. The ocean was fun but ocean city is overcrowded! Anyway it all turned out to be a pleasant week at the beach.

Check in was easy , staff were friendly , and we had acres to ice and coffee 24/7. however I did encounter a roach in the bathroom which is a big deal for me . I expected this facility to be clean and free of rodents and insects and that honestly dampened my entire experience after seeing that.

Nice little spot to view the boardwalk

Rooms are a little outdated but clean and comfortable. Having the balcony to sit on to people watch was great.
